Interview recorded by Herman Peters OFM for his thesis “Enkele hoofdstukken uit het sociaal-religieuze leven van een Dani-groep” published Dekker en van de Vegt, Utrecht, 1965. The interview was recorded in 1963-1964 in the Baliem Valley in West Papua. The interview is in the local language. Although a few words are said in Dutch. On the background you can hear from time-to-time people working. They talk among others about warfare and cursing. On the cover is a reference to probably the typed-out interview as the scripta of Herman Peters OFM p. 14c3 to 13c. Until now the scripta have not been located.
The thesis has also been published in English with the title: "Some observations of the social and religious life of a Dani-group", Jayapura Lembaga Anthropologi Univ. Cenderawasih, 1975.
The tape is part of the audio collection of the foundation PACE Papua Cultural Inheritance. For more information or any messages or correspondence contact huublems81@gmail.com or srgales@ziggo.nl.
